Minneapolis journal: The majority
for division in Dakoea has .dimlnlsheo
rapidly, 1t must be admitted, aud the
official returns will probably stop ct
about 5000 as the figure by which the
people OF Dakota have declared their de.
sire for dual statehood. While there is
some disappointment at the result, the
fact still remains that a clear majority OF
votes cast were for division, and thus,
too, Without proper organization and
work. The people had been made in
different by q long reign of political
tyrrany and injustice at the hands OF q
democratic congress. This is easily
the chief reason for the light vote, But
the majority for division still remains /,
an inRnrmountable fact.
The anti-divisionists profess to see in
the above result great cause for iubila.
ton and declare that it has give O
boom to the antl-division con-
vention to be held at Aberdeen next
month. They say. that the divisioniste,
discouraged by their small majority will
in asking for admission as q whole
aud thai statehood csn then easily be
achieved.
There's richness for you'll The idea
that 9 majority of the people of Dakota,
after gaining a substantial victory and
placing themselves on record before the
world as desiring dual statehood, will
humbly resign the fruits of their iabors
just because the msjority for division
was not 5000 or 10000 larger,
is almost too absurd to deserve
notice. 1t reminds one OF the "RalP Of
de fested Governor Ames, who wanted
elected Governor MeGill to turn oyer
his office to him because his msjority
was only 5000 or 80. At the last general
election the democrats carried the state
OF New York by some I,IO0 plurality.
They had prophesied q majority OF s5, 600.
Why didn't they take q back seat and
give the vote OF New York to the repub-
licans. on the ground that there majority
was not large enough.
The anti-division spider is more than
likely to be disappointed il he really
expects that the division fly will walk
into his Aberdeen parlor.
